Default MRC/ACADEMY SBV2 "Pro"

Model Rectifier Corporation and Team Academy, the 4WD specialists, are excited to announce the U.S.A. release of Academy Racing's newest entry into the 4WD off-road racing world, The SBV2 "PRO". This buggy sports a similar design to the original V2 but with even more features that have launched Academy into the top spot at many US tracks. The SBV2 "PRO" has all of the Academy option parts originally offered for the V2, all in one package! The SBV2 "PRO" will provide rock solid performance and driver satisfaction from start to finish. Based on reactions from Team Academy drivers and the press at the iHobby Expo, MRC/Academy has designed a winner that is showing very well in local, regional and national races throughout the country.

-Battery may be mounted as a standard stick pack, side-by-side pack, 3 x 3, 4 x 2, or 5 x 1 saddle pack. This capability will allow drivers to balance the buggy depending on specific track conditions and driving style
